Sheila Carter is alive but who did Steffy Forrester Kill that night?
Who is Allie Nguyen’s mom? Is she in Genoa City spying over Jack Abbott?
Last month, Y&R dropped bombshell information on fans by introducing Allie Nguyen as a new Abbott member. The fact that Allie was Jack’s dead son Keemo’s daughter rocked his world but he quickly welcomed her with open arms. With the audience already on board with this new character, Y&R head writer Josh Griffith teases more promising storylines in store for her, including a backstory on her past life before meeting Jack. Watch the video till the end to find out how Allie actually came into play and why she is estranged from her mother.
Allie revealed her mother moved to the east coast
Allie’s life has unexpectedly changed over the past couple of months. First, she mourns the death of her dad. Then, she finds out that she has a grandfather, despite being told otherwise her entire life. Jack tried to connect with Allie as soon as he learned that she is his granddaughter. However, Allie was reluctant to accept her newfound grandpa since her dad never connected with him when he was alive.
Having said that, Allie has now started to bond with Jack steadily. And soon, she will arrive in GC where other family members are waiting to meet with her. We can see Traci and Billy are excited to meet their niece while Ashley is a little suspicious of her. But should Ashley be concerned about Allie at all? Spoilers tease that a bigger problem other than Allie could be looming for this family.
So far, Allie has revealed that she and her mother are estranged and that her mom left for the east coast after divorcing her dad. But who was her mom? And what split up her family?
Y&R head writer Josh Griffith promises he’s got big plans for Allie
“Through finding the Abbotts, Allie finds herself. And there’s still this whole other side of, why is she estranged from her mom? All she had was her dad and now she has no one, but she’s left with a grandfather that she never knew existed. She’ll be coming into this very cautiously and she’ll have a wonderful journey to take,” he told Soap Opera Digest.
Jack meeting up with Allie in LA was mysterious from the beginning. The two would have never known of each other’s existence if it weren’t for those mysterious text messages that Jack received. Allie was absolutely horrified when she found out that Diane had used her to her benefit.
“We were looking for ways to find that next generation of Abbotts and that led us to Keemo. What if he passed away, causing Jack great conflict? And then there’s Allie, but finding her seemed too easy, so we came up with the mystery of who would want her to meet the family she never knew about. So, one thing flowed into the other,” Griffith told, explaining how Allie came into play.
Griffith has made it clear that Allie’s mom will also come on the scene sooner or later. And when that happens, Allie will once again go through a rollercoaster of emotions on Y&R.
Speaking of who Allie’s mother could be, speculation has started that she could be a former GC resident, who we know from close – someone like Mari Jo Mason, who was romantically linked with Keemo when he was in the town. Of course, their relationship ended on-screen after Mari Jo tried to set him up with a hooker. But she has been out of GC for a long time, and perhaps she might have reconciled with Keemo later, resulting in the birth of Allie.
We just watched Diane come back from the dead. We won’t be surprised if yet another character from the past pops up on the Y&R canvas.
